Some people are very invested in that hashtag. They feel they are "taking back gaming" or some fucking non-sense. But you're right, its not worth getting worked up over a hashtag.

The key is to remember that is a critique and that she says its ok to like games with problems and pointing out those problems does not make the game bad. And that its ok to disagree with her on a specific game. Most of the time she is talking about either lazy writing or just shitty characters. It is also completely okay to disagree with about 50% of what she says without being misogynistic or racist in the slightest. And whilst Xiphos definitely helped drive the thread off-topic he really wasn't the only one - and it takes two to tango.
Is it really off-topic though? Before that thread was closed, it went exactly where I thought it would go. The videogame market is slowly expanding. There's a subset of gamers who grew up playing games like Doom and Quake and they resent everybody from female gamers to older gamers, casual gamers, mobile gamers, Facebook gamers, browser-based gamers and what have you. They despise everybody playing a non-AAA, twitch-based, ultra-competitive game. I thought that that was pretty much the driving force of the whole discussion.

LMAO, that's the crowd I thought was driving this whole thing, too.

That isn't the driving force of #GG, but I am pretty sure #GG is off-topic for this thread altogether - let us not get another thread closed.

[edit for derailing. I don't even care that much about GamerGate.]

Search for the word "banned" written by the player in question.
Generally the most efficient way to solve that problem.
